San Antonio baker Evangeline Tregre made a new life far from the brutal lair of shifters she was born into. Her leopard-shifter blood never stirred inside her -- until Alonzo Massi walked in. The powerful shifter is as irresistible as he is terrifying, but his icy demeanor tells her to keep her distance. Alonzo knows danger follows him, and Evangeline doesn't deserve to be involved. But Alonzo isn't strong enough to stay away from the one woman who can make him feel at peace. When their secret lives draw a mortal threat, Alonzo unleashes the feral passion he keeps pent up inside himself.
